(PRESS RELEASE) -- FUEL TV (www.fuel.tv) announces the premiere of
“Punk Payback” with Bas Rutten this Wednesday, November 2nd at
9:30pm ET / PT. “Punk Payback” stars the ever-charismatic Bas
Rutten, former UFC Heavyweight Champion and three-time King of
Pancrase World Champion, teaching FUEL TV viewers how to defend
themselves in real life dangerous situations. The series is
produced by Brentwood Communications International, Inc.
(BCII).

Approaching serious subject matters in humorous ways, “Punk
Payback” with Bas Rutten showcases combat moves that can help
viewers avoid being “punked” on the street. Using real surveillance
footage of frightening events such as people getting carjacked or
held up in a convenience store, Rutten mixes in reenactments to
offer tips on how to get out of these tenuous situations. His
specialized fighting skills, combined with his amusing personality,
make for a uniquely educational and entertaining self-defense
show.

“Bas Rutten is one of the most charismatic characters I’ve ever met
and he can fill up a TV screen all by himself,” says George
Greenberg, FUEL TV Executive Vice President and GM. “We’re happy to
bring him to FUEL TV with this exciting and fun show that mixes
humor into educational survival situations. If a punk starts it,
rest assured, Bas will finish it every time.”

“You won’t see a show like this anywhere else on television,” says
Bud Brutsman, BCII CEO and Executive Producer. “Bas addresses some
serious topics in this fast-paced series. But he’ll have fun with
the situations as well.”
